Can You See the Pride in the Panther

Can You See the Pride In the Panther
As he grows in splendor and grace
Topling obstacles placed in the way,
of the progression of his race.
Can You See the Pride In the Panther
as she nurtures her young all alone
The seed must grow regardless
of the fact that it is planted in stone.
Can You See the Pride In the Panthers
as they unify as one.
The flower blooms with brilliance,
and outshines the rays of the sun.

This is a poem about his mother, eventhough it can be said to be an allusion of the black people. This poem is as powerful as his song 'Dear Mama' and it glorifies every body struggling for Human rights and equality especially those fighting from an oppressed camp.

A pride of a proud black panther.
